Birmingham, OH (PRWEB) March 31, 2015 -- Bettcher Industries introduces its new Optimax® Automatic Batter Breading Machine that delivers consistent breading perfection when compared to traditional hand breading, along with a better flavor profile over frozen pre-breaded menu items.

The new Optimax machine also incorporates new ergonomic features for easier machine operation and cleaning, along with a smaller footprint for use in commercial kitchen spaces of any size.

Now there are more reasons than ever for fast-food chains, QSRs, fast-casual establishments and other foodservice operations to prepare and serve their own signature fresh-breaded menu items from locally sourced foods.

Not only does the Optimax machine deliver consistent high-quality products compared to hand-breaded and frozen pre-breaded menu items, it also reduces ingredients and labor costs.

Noteworthy performance features of the new machine include:

Unique Breading Technology

The Optimax Batter Breading Machine continuously mixes ingredients while individually applying batter and breading to each food item. The result is “consistent breading perfection” compared to traditional “batch breading” by hand.

Capitalizing on the hyper-local sourcing trend, restaurant owners can gain a clear advantage over their competitors by easily preparing ultra-fresh, locally sourced foods with consistent quality – along with differentiation from pre-breaded menu offerings – thanks to the Optimax machine.

Optimize Food Costs

Because the design of the Optimax machine avoids the application of excess breading on food items, it helps reduce the cost of ingredients. Independent tests show reduced breading costs of up to 40% over traditional hand-breading procedures can be achieved.

Oil life is also extended, because of the reduced incidence of excess breading “blowing off” in the fryer and degrading the oil.

Optimize Labor

The Optimax machine is a true labor-saver. In many instances, it enables one employee to do the work of several people – and to do a better job. Plus, it’s easy to train new employees quickly on the user-friendly breading procedures of the machine.

New Two-Piece Breading Conveyor Design: Easy to Lift / Easy to Clean

Thanks to an ingenious new design, the breading conveyor, which includes a built-in handle, separates into two pieces to reduce movable weight and provides easy access for cleaning. The machine’s uni-body construction integrates many individual small parts for faster cleanup as well.

End-of-day sanitation is also very easy. The modular design enables the Optimax machine to come apart in three sections, including the breading section which opens up for easy removal and transport into the kitchen’s dish cleaning operations. With Optimax®, the entire cleanup process takes just minutes and keeps the food prep area much cleaner, too.

A Space-Saving Design

The compact design of the Optimax Batter Breading Machine means that only 18 inches of counter space is required, making it highly suitable for small as well as large kitchens. The machine fits easily into corner spaces as well.

The frame has also been reconfigured for improved fit for bus tubs to collect breaded foods exiting the machine. A new leg design and configuration allows the breading machine to fit on the DuraSift™ Breading Table – another innovative enhancement that offers significantly better oscillating performance over competing models. The DuraSift table blends and sifts flour quickly and more effectively, breaking down dough balls and capturing more reusable breading.

Solid ROI

The benefits of optimized labor and reduced ingredients cost savings mean that the Optimax machine is one of the best equipment investments a restaurant kitchen can make. Its highly attractive return on investment means that the machine “pays for itself” quickly – and then restaurateurs continue to reap the benefits of productivity and cost savings for years thereafter.

Made in America

Completely designed and manufactured in the United States, the Optimax Automatic Batter Breading Machine is available from Bettcher Industries and its foodservice distributors. Established in 1944, Bettcher is a leading developer and manufacturer of innovative machinery and tools for foodservice and food processing applications.

See it in Action at the NRA Show

The Optimax Automatic Batter Breading Machine will be on display at the NRA Show at McCormick Place in Chicago, IL on May 16-19, 2015. Restaurateurs are invited to stop by Bettcher Booth #112 for a live demonstration.
